warmth …
Yes I Like that 🙂
The red matches the anguish on the face of the guy on the phone.
I have been investigating red myself recently, and asking that same question, I think it is fascinating how colours change their significance and symbolism across different cultures. For me personally, I tend to use red in paintings wnen I am ‘ fired up’ , either with great energy and enthusiasm, or occassionally with anger. It also symbolises blood and sacrifice and death to my mind. However, contradictarily, I find that red is a brilliant acce t colour, as you have demonstrated so well in your photo, and as has been used in films spectacularly effectively eg in Schindlers List and Dont Look Now 🙂
Thank you for your wonderful comment I enjoyed reading it very much. I agree a colour can say so much and have many different meanings.
Thank you again

Lollipops….red to me means lollipops. My kids love the red ones–that is their favorite. So, red makes me happy to think of their happy, sticky, red faces. 🙂
Wonderful
